tornadoes dancing around each other. you can see the winds spinning there. >> oh, my goodness. >> you can see the wind grabbing the barn and pulling it to pieces. wow. another tornado responsible for this damage near sioux falls. luckily the people survived. they were hiding in their basement. >> god was on our side through this. we'll get through this. everything else is material. my family is alive. that's all that matters today. >> people know the interior bathroom, the basement. this is what it looks like north of toronto. the mayor says it was a miracle no one was hurt by a direct strike. the twister pulled the roofs off nearly 100 homes. >> severe weather hitting chicago. look at the clouds. that's real hanging over

chicago. it brought rain, lightning and potential for flash floods. >> in iowa, families are seeing what mother nature did to their homes. flooding inundated their homes. many are facing months, months of repairs. >> we were just extremely thankful it didn't get into the main floor. the basement was full to the ceiling, but it did not get into the main floor. we feel it can save our house. we have hope of being in our home in the near future. what is in store for today? karen mcginnis is watching the dangers. >> 41 people across the united states from the great lakes to the midwest, central plains and a portion of the mid-atlantic that does include the washington, d.c. area. for the afternoon and evening thunderstorms. the primary risk today is the strong to severe thunderstorms

the capacity of the iraqis to effectively and sustainably encounter the threat imposed by extremists. >> we have to act. we must act. i know there are always people who will tell our leaders reasons why we can't. i know of no military expert that believes that doing nothing is a recipe for anything but further chaos and eventually threats the united states of america. >> the white house says the only thing ruled out is putting combat forces on the ground in iraq. military planes are set to be working on a range of possibilities. manned and unmanned reconnaissance flights are over iraq right now. air strikes remain on the table. that's something the iraqi government formally requested. >> do you think it's an international security to honor that request? >> it is in our interest to

counter isis wherever we find them. >> on the ground, in iraq, the iraqi military is claiming it is driving back the isis forces. that is not clear because you are heari ing different things from different people. let's get the reality from nic robertson, live in baghdad. what can you tell us this morning? >> reporter: well, john, i talked to a senior iraqi politician here. he tells me in his conversations with u.s. officials, he understands that they want nuri al maliki gone. the question, he says, is how to replace him. who can tell this man he has to go? it can't come from the united states. certainly not publicly. iraqi politicians, even those in nuri al maliki's party can't tell him. the military won't tell him. he feels it has to come from the

religious leaders here. there's no sign of that happening. the major battle over iraq's largest oil refinery yesterday. it came out with the isis fighters holding more military on the ground than the government. overnight, we learned the government said in an air strike targeting isis fighters it killed 14 isis fighters. they said what happened at the local hospital. they received 11 bodies and 33 people wounded. they said they were civilians and among those wounded were women and children. john? >> what is it like right now in baghdad, that nation's capitol. i spent a lot of time there when times were tough and it felt like a war zone. is that the feeling you get right now? >> reporter: oh, if you walked in here from any other city

around the world, absolutely. there are wars everywhere. there are traffic check points, multiple traffic check points involved. bunkers, armed guards, multiple armed guards. short automatic weapons for close combat. yes, this is a city that feels it's on a war footing. this is a city where you have multiple car bombings in one day. it's a city that's grown used to that. people here, it kind of feels like normal, however, that said, people are trying to flee this city. i talked to a family yesterday. they are flying out to get to the north. you find that the airport now long lines for people trying to get out of the country, planes, weeks in advance. >> nic robertson in baghdad who's seen a lot of trouble over the years. thanks, nic. iran is putting a contingency on cooperation with

the u.s. in fighting isis. the chief of staff told reporters tehran would consider helping if nuclear talks are successful. iran has been negotiating with the u.s. over the nuclear program. they will not tie that discussion to the situation in iraq. happening today, house republicans voting on a replacement for eric cantor after his loss in a primary and his decision not to keep the number two house job through the elections. the number three is expected to win that vote, but there is a tight battle to replace mccarthy. that is where the action will be. stay with cnn for the twists and turns. thousands of lost irs e-mails may never be recovered. senate republicans learned the irs threw away the crashed hard drive from lois lerner.

the path of severe storms barrelling across the country. >> warnings ignored. new evidence showing gm may have learned about a dangerous ignition malfunction ten years before the recall. >> the e-mails are troubling. >> welcome back to "early start," i'm john berman. >> i'm christine romans. cnn learned the administration is losing confidence in prime minister nuri al maliki. biden called him urging him to work together to stop isis. it's moving closer and closer to baghdad. that call happening as u.s. officials tell cnn they want someone else in charge of the country who can work with sunni and kurds. president obama is keeping his cards close. he gave little indication about

what he might do in iraq, if anything. his administration isn't revealing much, either. ultimately, the solution is an iraqi one. any u.s. action would be in support to build the capacity of the iraqis to effectively and sustainably counter the threat imposed by extremists. >> you have to act. we must act. i know there are always people who will tell our leaders reasons why we can't. i know of no military expert that believes that doing nothing is a recipe for anything but further chaos and eventually threats the united states of america. >> cnn learned manned and unmanned flights are crisscrossing the skies over iraq as military planners work through the next steps. the only thing off the table, combat troops on the ground. air strikes could happen since

that seems to be mostly, not entirely, but mostly in the hands of isis. it's unclear, but seems isis and the iraqi government control parts of it. what the iraqi government hasn't been able to do is roll the advance toward the city back. that's significant and why the situation is ongoing. that's why, potentially, isis could achieve their own to encircle the capital. >> give me a sense of whether there's confidence in the country of whether nuri al maliki can bring them together so it doesn't evolve into sectarian conflict. the white house has serious concerns about who is running the country. >> reporter: that's certainly what i'm hearing talking to senior iraqi politician here. he told me his understanding was the united states absolutely wants nuri al maliki gone. the question is, is that conditional before the united states will provide air strikes?

we know the position is that there needs to be compromise and change here before the united states will get involved. it wants to see those political changes made. now, most people here, particularly on the sunni side feel al maliki is responsible for getting the country in the situation it is in at the moment. he's exasperated that by the response to the crisis. rather than trying to build bridges, he's gone on the offensive. really, politically, he is a spent force. certainly, we understand there are people in his own party who believe he should step aside. no one is prepared or able to do that, at the moment. having said that, there's a large part of the shia population, they are the majority in this country. the prime minister has gone on the defense of isis.

they want an end to the car bombs here. it's polarized. to get compromise, the consensus is nuri al maliki can't do it. he's not prepared. he's also alienated people by his actions that he should have been making compromises with. >> it's more complicated with isis a couple miles away from baghdad. thank you. a big, not so fast from iran over the possibility of working with the u.s. any cooperation with the u.s. is contingent on successful nuclear talks. iran has been negotiating with the united states over the nuclear program. they will resist efforts to link the two discussions together. an important vote for house republicans choosing majority leader now that eric cantor is stepping down from the role following his primary loss.
